Cherbury Camp is a multi-vallate hill fort-like earthwork, at grid reference SU374963, 1 mi north of the village of Charney Bassett in the Vale of White Horse, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. The site is connected to the village by a footpath.
This appears to be an Iron Age fortification but is far from any hill or other vantage point. It is, nonetheless, larger than its counterpart, Uffington Castle, on the nearby Berkshire Downs. The surrounding area was likely to have been marshy, so the site may have had strategic importance. In structure and unusual siting, it resembles nearby Hardwell Castle.
